  1. Think I'm steel

  2. Tough as nails

  3. Never feel

  4. Never fail

  5. But you're wrong

  6. So damn wrong

  7. Feel the weight

  8. Of your hate

  1. I still bleed

  2. My heart aches

  3. As you take

  4. And you take

  5. Words cut through my skin

  6. Tears roll down my chin

  7. My walls crumble within

  8. But I'll take it all on

  9. And get up when I fall

  10. 'Til the last curtain call

  11. But you'll never get the best of me, no more

  12. Said you'll never get the best of me, no more

  13. Aren't you tired of throwing stones

  14. Trying to kick me when I'm down

  15. But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

  16. So you're cold

  17. Made of ice

  18. Heart of stone

  19. Born to fight

  20. But I cry

  21. I still cry

  22. Are you happy

  23. You know

  24. I'm unhappy

  25. You know

  26. Take your shot

  27. I'm wide open

  28. Words cut through my skin

  29. Tears roll down my chin

  30. My walls crumble within

  31. But I'll take it all on

  32. And get up when I fall

  33. 'Til the last curtain call

  34. But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

  35. Said you'll never get the best of me, no more

  36. Aren't you tired of throwing stones

  37. Trying to kick me when I'm down

  38. But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

  39. But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

  40. Said you'll never get the best of me, no more

  41. Aren't you tired of throwing stones

  42. Trying to kick me when I'm down

  43. But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

  44. Heartbroken an beaten

  45. Knocked down and mistreated

  46. I will rise undefeated

  47. I will not let you bring me down

  48. Now the pain is deleted

  49. And I will never repeat it

  50. I will rise and defeat it

  51. I will not let you bring me down

  52. No, I won't let you bring me down

  53. Knocked down and mistreated

  54. Heartbroken and bleeding

  55. Still I rise undefeated

  56. 'Cause you'll never...

  57. 'Cause you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

  58. Said you'll never get the best of me, no more

  59. Aren't you tired of throwing stones

  60. Trying to kick me when I'm down

  61. But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

  62. Heartbroken and bleeding

  63. Knocked down and mistreated

  64. I will rise undefeated

  65. I will not let you bring me down

  66. Now the pain is deleted

  67. And I will never repeat it

  68. I will rise and defeat it

  69. I will not let you bring me down

Best of Me

Think I'm steel

Tough as nails

Never feel

Never fail

But you're wrong

So damn wrong

Feel the weight

Of your hate

I still bleed

My heart aches

As you take

And you take

Words cut through my skin

Tears roll down my chin

My walls crumble within

But I'll take it all on

And get up when I fall

'Til the last curtain call

But you'll never get the best of me, no more

Said you'll never get the best of me, no more

Aren't you tired of throwing stones

Trying to kick me when I'm down

But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

So you're cold

Made of ice

Heart of stone

Born to fight

But I cry

I still cry

Are you happy

You know

I'm unhappy

You know

Take your shot

I'm wide open

Words cut through my skin

Tears roll down my chin

My walls crumble within

But I'll take it all on

And get up when I fall

'Til the last curtain call

But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

Said you'll never get the best of me, no more

Aren't you tired of throwing stones

Trying to kick me when I'm down

But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

Said you'll never get the best of me, no more

Aren't you tired of throwing stones

Trying to kick me when I'm down

But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

Heartbroken an beaten

Knocked down and mistreated

I will rise undefeated

I will not let you bring me down

Now the pain is deleted

And I will never repeat it

I will rise and defeat it

I will not let you bring me down

No, I won't let you bring me down

Knocked down and mistreated

Heartbroken and bleeding

Still I rise undefeated

'Cause you'll never...

'Cause you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

Said you'll never get the best of me, no more

Aren't you tired of throwing stones

Trying to kick me when I'm down

But you'll never get the best of me, no you won't

Heartbroken and bleeding

Knocked down and mistreated

I will rise undefeated

I will not let you bring me down

Now the pain is deleted

And I will never repeat it

I will rise and defeat it

I will not let you bring me down
